Everyone has a story to tell!

Not interested in either of these.

Hummm.. I wonder who left these here  As you can tell by the look on my face, this is not the visual stimulation I was looking for.  LOL

There are some great pose props and furniture here including a dance pole.

Embrace the Mesh

Tonight I bought a great new jacket/shirt combo from Kal Rau.  I love it.  A big problem people have been having is the "fit" so the nice thing about this shirt is that it gives you several mesh options of various sizes including the transparent layer that helps make it all come together.

Mesh is certainly not perfect yet for every avi, but it's nice to see creators doing their best to put out a nice product for us to enjoy.

Now we certainly hope that more residents will be using mesh enabled viewers so that they too can enjoy the quality and detail that mesh provides.

Inventory Maintenance

I have not been feeling well the past few days, but one thing I started today was to spend time in my inventory.  Amazing how stuff accumulates.  It's no secret to me that I shop way too much and buy stuff I hardly ever wear.  I still have stuff from several Hunts to unpack and sort through. How does this happen?  LOL

So to make this even more interesting, I often check the Landmarks to see if they still work.  Sometimes the store is no longer inworld and sometimes I get teleported to someone's personal home parcel only to get hit by a security orb warning me to run run run.

I am starting with the t-shirt folder because that is where I think I will be able to weed the most.  Wish me luck and perseverance.

What's New?

Rocky & Scott

I have been very busy lately with my DJ thing and worked on getting some franchise businesses up on my sim. There is now a Hoorenbeek & Aikito store on Rocky Road.  One of my goals for the coming months is to get a few parcels on the sim ready for rental.  I have put this off long enough.

I have also been re-connecting with Scott since he recently returned to SL  The photo is of us at Si de Brit's rez day party. Scott was the DJ for the event. We both have a few music ideas that we are working on for Saint Niguel Isle.

The Passing of Fabrice Snook

After a number of unsuccessful attempts to get any news about the disappearance of our dear friend Fab, we finally got word that he had passed away back in November of last year.

I really got to know Fab when he approached me with an idea he had for creating Gay-worldsnews.com.  I decided to join the team and eventually offered to host the GWN Headquarters and TV Studio on Saint Niguel Isle.

Fab was a friend who taught me to expand on dreams and ideas.  He worked tirelessly for the good of the community -- Always driving us forward.

Fab was also very generous, kind, and at times humorous.  I can still hear his amazingly sexy French voice accent during our GWN Staff Meetings.  He shared many of the objects we use at the TV studio, but he also left us with something that has become a bit of humor among team members.  We have his 137 prim television camera in the TV studio.  I will be working on some sort of Memorial to him at the GWN HQ sometime soon.

Fab will leave us with a legacy of good memories and high hopes for our time in working with the LGBT community both in-world and out.  Thank you Fab for being a true friend.

Happy New Year 2012

Wishing all my blog followers Peace, Love, and Happiness for 2012.

I got a feeling this is going to be a great year both inworld and out.

Hugs,

Rocky

A Beautiful Place to Visit

Christmas at Calas

Come spend the holidays exploring four beautiful, romantic winter sims at Calas Galadhon Park. Whether you come to cross-country ski, skate, sled, take a romantic ride in a horse drawn sleigh or cuddle, dance and attend one of the live music performances at the new Christmas Pavilion, you’ll soon find the peace and the spirit of the holidays as it was in the American countryside of the early 1900’s.

Visit in Second Life

Christmas Season on Saint Niguel Isle.

Set your viewer to Midnight for best effect.

The past week or so I have been decorating a nice building at the end of Rocky Road on my sim.  I am calling this place Rockridge Coffee House Lounge and it's all fixed for the holidays.  Complete with a coffee machine, steaming hot cups of cocoa and gingerbread cookies.

There is even a nice comfy area to sit near the fireplace with friends.  I also put some Holiday music on the parcel stream to get you in the holiday spirit.

You are always welcome to visit.

It is Definitely Time

Rocky Visits LaPerla II, Old Italy

Sim Owner Addy Hax describes it like this,  “La Perla Due” : a beautiful and with love for details build Italian village, nice shops, cafes, bar and a lot more to explore, from time  to time there are live music events on the plaza or in the club. The church  on the hill can be rented for wedding.

I recently went for a visit and spent some time exploring the shops and taking in the beautiful landscape.  Here is your ticket to a vacation you won’t forget — http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/FuriZona/112/59/25
